In addition to in-vitro fertilization (IVF), fertility clinics may provide services such as intrauterine insemination (IUI), egg freezing, and genetic testing to further support individuals or couples on their journey to parenthood.

It can be beneficial for women who are not yet ready to conceive due to career, health, or personal reasons but wish to preserve their fertility. Egg freezing can also be considered prior to medical treatments that may affect fertility.

3.

This testing can help identify healthy embryos for implantation, reducing the risk of passing on genetic conditions to the child.
